Dawn Andrews

Children and Young People Services Manager

As the Family and Young People Services Manger my role is to oversee the Family Support Team, Play and Wellbeing team, Youth Work and Transition Support within the hospice.

I am a qualified Social Worker and Mental Capacity Act Best Interest Assessor and worked for many years as manager within Children’s Services for the Local Authority before joining the team at Derian House. I also have experience of working in Learning Disability Services and Transition for young people with SEND.

It is a privilege to work with the children, young people and their families who access the hospice and being part of a team to deliver the very best care and support.

Outside of the hospice I am a keen runner and enjoy going for long walks with my dog and family.
